What makes a reliable and trustworthy business leader?

Accountability (taking ownership) and Transparency (with employees, partners, customers)

How have you re-strategised and adopted to the digital transformations globally?

We are no different from a typical software company. But the digital transformation has propelled everyone to think about cyber security.

What are the clear changes that you have made to your journey in the last decade?

Decade is a long time, we made many changes. Let me pick tech, we had to think beyond non core functions to domain experts throughout. Just because we are a bunch of software engineers, we did not try to solve every software problem.

What is the current vision and mission at your current role?

Vision and mission is to make cyber security accessible and affordable.

How do you draw a balance between target orientation and empathetic and compassionate leadership?

It is easy, I look at it from an impact perspective. Would it impact revenue or a customer? If it does, then have a backup plan. And that does not happen very often. No one can give their best under stress. I always want everyone to enjoy their work and provide the best environment for them to contribute.

What has been your greatest strength and weakness in the context of leadership?

Greatest strength is that at all times I was positive and never displayed any form of visible stress to anyone. Weakness is figuring out exactly when to allow others to start making decisions.

Driving force is hunger for success. Philosophy is to be realistic, fear failure and never give up.

How do you plan to drive your business at a global level at your current role?

Invest time in multiple global hyper scaler partnerships.

Your top leadership goals during tough times?

Be transparent with all stakeholders and define the basics and stick to them.

You greatest success mantras?

Stay positive and be persistent if you believe in it.

How actively have you been personally involved with corporate social responsibilities? What have you felt driving societal responsibilities?

Very active. As founders we always believed in giving back. We give back $100k every year to various charitable organisations

What’s your vision for the industry and the Indian economy?

World over the cyber security space is going to witness exponential growth. It is a very subjective question, according to me the Indian economy will do well. World economy is a topic I always like to listen to and learn.
